Recent changes have caused problems that require an extra step for my 
instructions to work. I've been hoping that this could be fixed but it looks 
increasingly unlikely and may become moot with the new OSX -- which could make 
it impossible to keep producing binaries that can run on 10.6+

Here is the workaround to add to the current WIKI instructions. I'm heading to 
class and then out of town until next week. Feel free to post them.

WORKAROUND FOR GRASS 7 COMPILER PROBLEMS (8/2013)

Seem like this needs to be done in the GRASS-7.0.app. So you have to run 
bindist first.
Then launch GRASS 7. The GUI will crash.
>From the GRASS command line, cd to the ../gui/wxpython directory inside the 
>GRASS-7.0.app and run...

python core/toolboxes.py > xml/menudata.xml
python core/toolboxes.py "module_tree" > xml/module_tree_menudata.xml

Next, copy the newly created menudata.xml and module_tree_menudata.xml files 
back into the binary distribution (in ../dist.x86_64-apple-darwin12.4.0) and 
rerun bindist to make a new GRASS-7.0.app and *.pkg.

Hi,

I'm wondering if the instructions how to compile GRASS on Mac OS X at GRASS 
Wiki [1] are up-to-date. There are two readmes in source code [2, 3], wiki 
pages, than William's [4] and Michael's [5] pages and of course the official 
download page [6] if you want to avoid compilation (some almost-nightly build 
can be enough for you). Sometimes their contents overlaps, sometimes they just 
contain links to others. I miss clear instructions where to find instructions 
for compiling.

Can you please somehow clarify the situation for me?

Thanks,
Vaclav
